Info for Farkas: Chamber Music, Vol. 3 – Works with Flute

This tenth release in the Toccata Classics exploration of the music of Ferenc Farkas (1905–2000) puts his chamber music with flute in the spotlight. As with previous albums in this series, the music here highlights the characteristics that make Farkas’ music so appealing: catchy tunes, transparent textures, buoyant rhythms, a fondness for Baroque forms and a taste for the folk-music of his native Hungary that marks him out as a true successor to Bartók and Kodály. Some of these pieces speak a tougher language that shows Farkas to have been in touch with his times, but it is the infectious melodic appeal of most of the music here that carries the day.
